The most useful review selected by IndeedPeople you work with will step all over you to get ahead. When they don't have work everyone is throwing everyone else under the bus trying to get their hours. Management isn't even local.
Pros
Work van
Cons
Everything else

The job is okay. Not much advancement. After you learning everything there is for the job in the few few weeks you will not learn much more. Great flexibility.

The benefits and pay
Floater (Current Employee) - Duncan, SC - 17 March 2021
Do not apply to this company. They will persuade you and have you apply for positions that are not even available within the company. They do not believe in social distancing and do not seem to take Covid-19 precautions seriously! The management is bottom of the barrel and puts in no effort for employees success. I could go on and on. These are just a few things i've witnessed within the company the 2 months i have been working there.
Pros
paid lunch, good benefits
Cons
management, employees, the job itself

Upper management is incredibly understanding
Construction Manager (Current Employee) - Atlanta, GA - 20 December 2020
AFL Fujikura is among one of the best companies I’ve ever worked for. If you have the drive and manage your career by being professional and a team player, you will succeed easily. If you just show up and complain at every turn, you will bring others down. I’ve enjoyed my time with this company and highly recommend you apply but only if you have a very strong desire to succeed and be professional. I’ve met some of the most professional and wonderful people within the company since I’ve started years ago. It’s what you make it and if you’re a team player. You can go very far.
Pros
Extraordinary Management Structure
Cons
New division growing pains can be difficult to navigate

Procurement and Contracts Manager (Current Employee) - Surrey, BC - 27 November 2020
I joined AFL during pandemic, prior to AFL, I’ve supported a broad range of organizations from Tech start-up to Crown Corporations, from Healthcare to Ship building manufacturer, I must say that I never seen leadership team like AFL working so hard building a strong, cohesive and trusted culture through caring, enabling and supporting their employees, I’m so grateful that I made the right decision to follow the leader who focus on building trust.
Pros
Caring and supportive overall culture, job security, Fun people to work with with, great benefits, Health and fitness program, career growth opportunities
Cons
Can’t think of any, there are always opportunities to improve

Man, they don’t hear your side before terminating you. You do one mistake and they pull your id. In actual telus culture is out of sense. How can you blacklisted someone for whole life? This is not fair

Good people to work with
Director of Quality and Operational Excellence (Current Employee) - Spartanburg, SC - 19 January 2020
Strength of the company is its people. The biggest challenge is that the company has grown significantly over the last 20 years yet still suffers from many "small company" systems and business processes.

Was good, but now....
Mid level manager (Former Employee) - Duncan, SC - 19 January 2020
AFL pays pretty well for management roles, but their management team is not focused on what matters. They are very reactive and have become totally “profits first” in their attitude towards the needs of the facilities and associates. Sad because it wasn’t always that way.
Morale has really begun to lag because of poor decisions certain individuals have been permitted to make
Pros
Money is not bad
Cons
Poor decisions and associates must bear the brunt of repercussions

Mismanaged joke of a company
Technician (Former Employee) - Surrey, BC - 9 January 2020
Pay is per job, so if you have a slow day or a lot of cancellations (which happens a lot), its possible to be on call all day and make next to nothing. There is a lot of favouritism in the company, many of the managers and head employees are goofs, they don't care and don't address any employees concerns, are immature and have bad attitudes. You will work almost every weekend with a constantly changing schedule, they will make you go to meetings an hour away, three hours before your shift, with no travel pay. Turnover rate is high, half the trainees quit within a year.

Application Engineer (Current Employee) - Duncan, SC - 26 November 2019
This is a fast pace setting and extremely challenging. But AFL has some of the best resources to help achieve the company's goals. AFL also has a strong bond with the community.

Do no work for the contractors please.
Contractor (Former Employee) - Abbotsford, BC - 22 November 2019
It's a big scam.Contractors keep on hiring people and you do not get paid for 3 to 4 months including training. How is it possible to survive then? No one listens to the real issues. Bought my own equipment and vehicle and they treat you the worst. Overall, do not have any issues with the AFL company, it's just the contractors who hire people for their own interest. I would like to suggest to whomsoever willing to apply, please apply in the AFL directly. These hiring for contractors should stopped. It's not worth to work for them. Manager does not care about you at all. You are just a number. Overall experience was terrible.

Fast paced and collaborative place to work
Import/Export Coordinator (Current Employee) - Belmont, NH - 9 November 2019
I enjoyed my work every day. I split my days between monitoring the imports and processing export paperwork, which made the day go faster. I also helped the international customers with shipping notifications and helping with any other issues or questions they may have.
